Breanne Johnson is an artist and self-taught new designer living and working in Detroit, Michigan. She holds a Masters of Fine Art from Cranbrook Academy of Art and Bachelor of Art degrees in Visual Art and Political Science from the University of Chicago. Born in California, Breanne shares citizenship with the United States and Curaçao. Her design work focuses on furniture, objects and small architectures that examine our relationship to the social and physical spaces we inhabit. She enjoys thinking about the home, broadly, as an ever-changing and malleable space. As both an artist and designer, Breanne identifies strongly as a creative problem solver, and grapples with a diverse range of problems through a diverse range of media; she has been, and remains, a carpenter, a painter, a filmmaker, a host, a landscape artist, a space-maker, a clothing designer, a metalworker, a ceramicist, a sculptor, a writer, a cook and a sandwich artist. She would like her various projects and investigations to grant her the freedom to play.
